Brett M Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Just to give everyone an idea of the work Woody has done for these skins, here's a shot of the instructions and some of the sheets of rivet decals. The instructions include placement for all of the rivets, top and bottom, sides and flaps. They also include step by step instructions and tips to get the most out of the skins. Pretty impressive....and again, they lay out beautifully, especially that thin carrier film. If only Tamiya could figure out thin carrier film Edited September 30, 2020 by Brett M Lothar, AlbertD, Kaeone57 and 14 others 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett M Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) More progress. Not as much as I wanted to get done but I tuned in the dumpster fire of a debate last night and lost 2 hours of my life..... And.....I added a panel line wash to help. Which Woody mentioned to me previously.....oops Edited September 30, 2020 by Brett M Kaeone57, Rick K, LSP_Kevin and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nichenson Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Did I miss the announcement for the sale on the rivets? Those look amazing. It has even got me thinking about getting a -1 to do a prewar version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he's finished, we'll announce it here first. Right now, and to the end of the year, we are having an inventory clearance sale which is totally time consuming. Once we get through that, there will be a LOT of new releases in 2021. LSP_Kevin, Landrotten Highlander, Kaeone57 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it pans out closely enough, I might be in for a set - plus, you could then market it as being suitable for both kits! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett M Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Time for some better pictures using the DSLR. Hopefully this shows the detail better of the skins and rivets along with how good they look and to scale.
